Brian,
Last year I had a chance to talk with my only Aunt off of the Knapp/Visser line.She told me that my grandmothers surname was really Knop changed to by her grandfather to Knopp, then her older siblings had changed it to Knapp because they didn't like the Knopp name.When I talked to my aunt she also told me that Knopp was pronounced
K-Nop.You are the first one I have seen with anything as close as to where the name had derived from.
I was just recently able to find 11 generations back on my grandmother, going back on her mothers side on the Kalkman's branch.
Please contact me if this sounds like it could connect.
